“So, you’ve decided the time is right to move to a smaller home, apartment or retirement community. But where do you start? The entire process is daunting. You have a lot more furniture than your new place will hold, tons of stuff to give to the kids, and good china and crystal to get rid […]
“Valerie was a blessing; I am so glad I hired her. My home of many years was full of everything imaginable. Not only did she do the packing, she was an encyclopedia of knowledge on what and how to do all kinds of things having to do with the move. She taught me how to […]
“Having Valerie as my Moving Manager made me feel like Cinderella. There I was feeling scared and burdened with all the work that lay ahead of me, and suddenly a Fairy Godmother arrived!

“In December 2009, Valerie Achorn helped move my sister, Wanda G., from a nursing home in Illinois, to a new nursing home (near me and our hometown) in West Virginia. The move would not have happened without Valerie’s organization skills and willingness to do ‘whatever it takes’ to get Wanda re-situated in the nursing home […]
“Cleaning out the old place, disposing of all the accumulated (23 years worth, man) stuff, and staging it for sale. It sold in approximately 7 seconds for much more than we asked. You can all take credit for that. You made an inherently stressful event Easy and Smooth. We tell everyone about your organization and […]
Thank you for your company’s excellent service. Missy and Katie were great; they were friendly and most helpful in a most trying situation.
Thank you, Valerie, for your patience – knowledge – and incredible support. I was truly at crossroads until you stepped in and took charge. Truly this move would not have begun to be possible without your expertise and support. Thank you more than words…
